4 AA Battery Operated Phone Charger with LED Light (Black)

These work if your in a jam. When our power went out from the snow storm these literally saved our household. Lol. I have a toddler who loves playing and watching videos on her tablet. Well without power it wasn't possible so these charges came in handy to have. It literally saved the day and made a toddler very happy. So yes they do work and are small enough to carry anywhere. I bought 2 and wil definitely be getting a few more. It's very easy to use. Just put the lithium batteries in and go. It also has a flash light and it's bright. :)

UPDATE: Tested with alkaline batteries. After three hours, my 10k mAh power bank was still at 25% charge, and now the light doesn't work. Will be returning this, regretfully. There's a lot to like about this item. It's compact, with an easy-open top. The LED light is bright and steady. And the price is right. That said, it does seem to be a little slow. I tested it with the only two types of batteries I had on hand, a set of Super Heavy Duty ones from a dollar store, and a national brand rechargeable type. Alkaline batteries are strongly recommended by the manufacturer, and I don't doubt they'd yield better results than what I used. But here's what I found: After one hour, the Super Heavy Duty batteries had charged my older Android from 82% to 88%. After an additional hour, it was still there. Thinking the batteries may have died, I pulled and tested them. They were just about 35% depleted. The second test, with branded rechargeables, yielded similar results. After one hour, it charged to 95% from 88%, and wouldn't go any further. Those batteries tested out at around 30% depleted. Things I think would help yield better results: A faster cable, the proper type of battery, and charging a power bank instead of directly charging a phone. I have a few 10-20k mAh banks I'm going to fool with to see if I get better results. The bottom line? It does the job, albeit slowly, and would probably charge a small flip phone more quickly. With a good supply of AA alkalines, it's a good alternative to solar for an emergency tool kit, and worth the $7 I paid. I would buy it again.

This is a wonderful buy. Every home needs one of these.

LZDICITARU Battery Operated Phone Charger Emergency|USB Battery Powered Power Bank Portable 4 AA Batteries Powered Outlet (White) SIZE The battery bank is not large but actually somewhat big when you consider the amount of BAttery capacity it provides versus what you get with a purpose built battery bank. The use of AA batteries creates a loss of size efficiency that the product makes up for in powersource availability; the availability of the additional batteries. I doesn't weight much until you place the batteries in it, at which point it does obtain a modestly substantial weight. BUILD QUALITY This isn't built very robustly. It does feel like something that would break if dropped. Even though I have dropped it before, it does still work. I wouldn't be too rough with this. I used these with lithium ion AA rechargeable batteries. I do seem to have to recharge them quickly after being used in this but i assumed it was a matter of the lower voltage and power capacity of my lithium batteries vs mr previous actual power bank, but it may be that batteries lose efficiency in this device and rechargeables may more of their power lost in heat or something in this device. Its also possible that the warning is supposed to be against NiMh batteries which operate at a 1.2 volts and not lithium which operates at the same voltage as alkaline (1.5 volts). These are a great value if you do use them with a collection of rechargeable batteries because it gives you a battery banks for for a small fee and that same power source can go back to running your game controllers or remote and flashlights when you don't need it. That makes this the perfect device for emergency kits. since this is appropriately compatible with AA batteries that should or would also be in such emergency kits. Its also great to have in the event you can't charge your phone at an outlet but could purchase batteries.

Great for short term. After it’s too low to charge you can still use it as a flashlight

I was not expecting this to be so good

No warranty. Price was cheap and I had 30 days to try it out. It worked great for about 5 or 6 weeks and then was completely dead. Given the poor reviews it wasn't unexpected. I wasn't using it for anything important so I had time to get a better more reliable charger - one with a 3 year warranty. This item was cheaply made with a high defect rate - thus the lack of any sort of warranty. Perhaps some units last a little longer but consider how inconvenient it could be when it suddenly dies without warning and you find yourself without the means to charge or power your device.

I don't think it can seriously be used for much other than what it states. Maybe in an emergency recharge if all you have is 4 x AA batteries. I just liked the whole concept of a little box which could power something with a usb connection and rechargeable NI-MH batteries. I toyed with it, with a couple of LED nightlights and it works great. It has a little LED light so it can provide a little bit of light if you need it. Given how cheap it is and the novelty it was a fun little device to play around with.

Llego antes de tiempo pero no funciona

This works.. This is a great product to have in an emergency, if you are out in the wilderness and both your mobile phone and your rechargeable Battery Bank have no power left.. Just pop in 4 AA batteries and charge your mobile phone, easy.. The result I got with my IPhone 16 (which uses a USB A to Lightning connector), using 4 new Duracell Plus batteries in this Battery Operated Phone Charger, my IPhone was charged to 56% from 4% in 5 hours.. It gets you out of trouble, this can be a life saver.. And they are so affordable.. Just keep plenty of AA batteries with you.. Amazon have these batteries with a 10yr shelf life, a great compliment to a life saving situation..

Pratique quand on a pas de prise de courant dans les environs... À acheter d'urgence. Et c'est pas moi, le vendeur.

Doet het prima met mijn oplaadbare Duracell AA accu’s, verwacht voor een smartphone geen volledige laadbeurt maar met een gewoon telefoontje mee op reis in de rugzak is het zeker een meerwaarde wegens gewicht en beschikbaarheid wereldwijd, ik zou het motiveren als een reisartikel maar met een telefoontje als mijn emporia werkt hij bij wekelijks gebruik prima, het voelt niet robust aan maar gaat bij mij overal mee en het doet een job verrassend goed. Aangenaam verrast. Ik geef maar 4 sterren omdat het echt ook wel een zwaktes heeft. Heb je aa batterijen thuis dan is het product zeker als gadget een must have.

Fonctionne bien. La charge dépend bien sûr de la qualité des piles. Ne remplace pas un powerbank, c'est une solution de secours utile aussi comme lampe de poche, légère et pas chère. Le switch à trois positions est minuscule, il ne faut pas avoir de trop gros doigts.
